Reply to What’s the best approach to handling large datasets while scraping?
Scheduling periodic scrapes rather than one large scrape can help maintain manageable data flows, especially for sites with frequent updates.

Reply to How can I scrape data that’s only available after login?
Logging in during off-peak hours reduces the risk of being flagged for unusual activity. Many sites monitor login frequency and usage patterns.

Reply to How do I deal with rate limits on public APIs?
I sometimes find alternative APIs for the same data. Combining multiple sources reduces dependency on any one API and spreads out the request load.

Reply to What’s the best way to handle date-based scraping for historical data?
Using Selenium’s calendar selector works well when scraping sites with graphical date pickers. I simulate clicks to pull data by day, month, or year.

What’s the best way to extract weather data from sites like NOAA or Weather.com?
NOAA offers a robust API with historical and real-time weather data, which is more reliable than scraping and includes government-approved data.
